    Yes, the print out page size was meant to be a standard 8.5X11 printer paper.

    Notes problem items during the build:

    1. Front main spine is a inch to long, it was too long and the ribs would not line up with the front of the box structure.
    2. Main wheel house, the back half was a inch too long so I had to shorten the inner and outer sides as well as the lowest step of the roof to fit in the hole of the main hull for the boat house to fit in to.

    These are the two main issues I encountered during the build process.
